..

sinking deeper under the sea of exhaustion
drowning.
too tired to inflate my lungs
asphyxiating.
i can feel my brain cells pop
disappear.
diffusing under pressure
lights-out.
straining to keep a mind shutting down,
running.
unconsciously walking through a conscious world,
zombified.
i notice nothing, care for nothing,
desensitized.
my skin peeled back, banana, revealing my raw
insides.
i cannot function this way,
i function this way everyday.
